translation Abdul Khaliq Ali *
A recent study revealed that one out of every six children in Iraq injuries were caused byviolence, compared with one case for every 50 infected around the world. The
study also found that the number of Iraqi children who are exposed to death or disability as a result of violence, including gunfire and shrapnel and explosions, more than ten times the number of people infected by other means.
very little research is concerned with injuries of children in conflict zones including Iraq following the US invasion of the country in 2003.
he d. Adam Kushner, senior researchers involved in the study from the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health, while aid groups focusing on bombings and other causes of violent injuries, it also would allow reconstruction Ktermam roads and education efforts about the possible spin - off of injuries sources. He added that in times of conflict may be at least adult supervision due to the parent or Aogahm killed as a result of the war.
The study team conducted a community survey in Baghdad in 2014 in search of injuries to children under theage of eighteen years in addition to the health care they received between 2003 and 2014. Among the 900 families of the total number of personnel 5148 people, the participants that said that there are 152 infected children which accounted for 28% of the total injuries, was the average age of infected children 8 years three - quarters of the boys, and that most of the injuries occurred inside the house.
The cause of the most common injury is a fall which accounting for 34% of all cases. The second reason is traffic accidents accounting for 22% of injuries. Of all injuries to children, was 15% of the resulting accidents directly from the conflict , including wounds caused by gunfire and shrapnel and explosions, compared with only 2% in all parts of the world.
One child out of every four children is Ttabiba in the hospital, and more half of them undergoing surgery including Altkotaib. Two - thirds of the children were injured Baouk, and ten died as a result of injury, five of those who died were a direct result of the conflict, while others were injured as a result of traffic accidents, poisoning or electric shocks.
Among the direct deaths due to the conflict a child in the age of two died after a bomb; and two children ,one of them said 6 years old and a female 11 years exposed to the fire; and 13 - year - old child was hit byshrapnel as a result of one of the bombings.
The 7% of deaths among Iraqi children as a result of much more than other countries , the proportion of low - to - moderate injuries from the conflict - free income. For example , it was the infant mortality rate of 0.1% after an injury in South Africa, and 0.3% in Turkey, 2.3% in Iran, and 5.5% in Ghana.
Shed d. Patrick Hanovic, assistant director of the emergency department at the hospital of California Medical Center in Los Angeles, the light on the issues faced by families in the treatment of children infected. For example, when the injured child in a bombing or a traffic accident, The family may need a phone to call forhelp, and the road is open to transfer to open a clinic where the cadres and suitable accessories available.
He says Hanovic that all of these factors may be at risk during the violent conflicts, and perhaps governments and groups other focus on strengthening health systems prior to the conflict.
He says Kushner , "humanitarian organizations consider injury prevention strategies and in education, and must re - build roads and houses. also, training in first aid and rehabilitation is necessary."
